Danish language Pubblichiamo il testo della Legge n. 241/1990 ("Nuove norme in materia di procedimento amministrativo e di diritto di accesso ai documenti amministrativi") coordinato ed aggiornato con le modifiche introdotte dalla Legge 11 febbraio 2005, n. 15, dal Decreto legge 14 marzo 2005, n. 35 e dalla Legge 2 aprile 2007, n. 40. Codici | Amministrativo LEGGE 7 agosto 1990, n. 241 Nuove norme in materia di procedimento amministrativo e di diritto di accesso ai documenti amministrativi (Gazzetta Ufficiale del 18 agosto 1990 n. 192) (Testo coordinato ed aggiornato con le modifiche introdotte dalla Legge 11 febbraio 2005, n. 15, dal Decreto legge 14 marzo 2005, n. 35 e dalla Legge 2 aprile 2007, n. 40) La Camera dei deputati ed il Senato della Repubblica hanno approvato; Il Presidente della Repubblica Promulga la seguente legge: Capo I Principi Articolo 1. (1) (Principi generali dell'attività amministrativa) 1. L’attività amministrativa persegue i fini determinati dalla legge ed è retta da criteri di economicità, di efficacia, di pubblicità e di trasparenza secondo le modalità previste dalla presente legge e dalle altre disposizioni che disciplinano singoli procedimenti, nonché dai princìpi dell’ordinamento comunitario. 1-bis. La pubblica amministrazione, nell’adozione di atti di natura non autoritativa, agisce secondo le norme di diritto privato salvo che la legge disponga diversamente. 1-ter. I soggetti privati preposti all’esercizio di attività amministrative assicurano il rispetto dei princìpi di cui al comma 1. 2. La pubblica amministrazione non può aggravare il procedimento se non per straordinarie e motivate esigenze imposte dallo svolgimento dell’istruttori. (1) Articolo così modificato dalla Legge 11 febbraio 2005, n. 15. Articolo 2. (1) (Conclusione del procedimento) 1. Ove il procedimento consegua obbligatoriamente ad una istanza, ovvero debba essere iniziato d'ufficio, la pubblica amministrazione ha il dovere di concluderlo mediante l'adozione di un provvedimento espresso. 2. Con uno o più regolamenti adottati ai sensi dell'articolo 17, comma 1, della legge 23 agosto 1988, n. 400, su proposta del Ministro competente, di concerto con il Ministro per la funzione pubblica, sono stabiliti i termini entro i quali i procedimenti di competenza delle amministrazioni statali devono concludersi, ove non siano direttamente previsti per legge. Gli enti pubblici nazionali stabiliscono, secondo i propri ordinamenti, i termini entro i quali devono concludersi i procedimenti di propria competenza. I termini sono modulati tenendo conto della loro sostenibilità, sotto il profilo dell'organizzazione amministrativa, e della natura degli interessi pubblici tutelati e decorrono dall'inizio di ufficio del procedimento o dal ricevimento della domanda, se il procedimento è ad iniziativa di parte. 3. Qualora non si provveda ai sensi del comma 2, il termine è di novanta giorni. 4. Nei casi in cui leggi o regolamenti prevedono per l'adozione di un provvedimento l'acquisizione di valutazioni tecniche di organi o enti appositi, i termini di cui ai commi 2 e 3 sono sospesi fino all'acquisizione delle valutazioni tecniche per un periodo massimo comunque non superiore a novanta giorni. I termini di cui ai commi 2 e 3 possono essere altresì sospesi, per una sola volta, per l'acquisizione...

Everybody loved it, you will too!

Bring a raincoat! Wasn't prepared for the amount of partying... but that isn't really such a bad thing is it? Living abroad, especially in Copenhagen, forces a lot of independence out of you. In situations where I used to run to my mommy for help, I had to deal with everything myself but its a great feeling of accomplishment to know that you're capable of it!
In my opinion:
Everybody loved it, you will too!

Personal recommendation:
I haven't met a single person who hasn't loved Copenhagen. A lot of people (including myself) ended up here on a whim but we've wound up loving it to bits. The city is small and cosy and very easy to get to know. Yes the Danes can be difficult to break through but its worth the effort because they will be honest and loyal friends to you. The exchange community is vast and tightly knit. Everyone knows everyone.



FINAL COMMENTS

Buy a used bike to get around. It saves tons of money in bus/metro fares, gives you more freedom and keeps you fit! The bike culture here is insane but I love it. Try to plan your travels ahead of time to get the best rates. And try not go in a really big group! As fun as it sounds its IMPOSSIBLE to make decisions with a dozen people together. Your mobile phone will be your lifeline. Everyone texts each other because its cheaper. The city is notoriously safe, but never leave your bag down at a club! Try not to tie yourself down by just hanging out with people from your home uni or country. Go out, make friends, have fun!!

Personal recommendation:
Get going! You have to be somewhat independant and resourceful at finding your own friends, and enjoy being somewhat anonymous. I came from a big public university, so I was used to being anonymous. On the other hand, the classes were small and fairly intimate, but do not expect anyone to baby you.



FINAL COMMENTS

I chose to go to Denmark because I wanted courses in English (my German was too weak to go to Germany), I wanted to experience a little known culture and learn their language, and I wanted to experience first-hand a socialist country. Denmark is great: everything is clean; everyone has health care and does not seem wanting of any material needs; things are so orderly and structured, such as taking numbers everywhere so there are no ques, that no one ever feels chaotic anxiety; but mediocritcy, albeit at an incredibly high level, reigns in Denmark -- no one wants to rise above others, but rather keep everyone at a high level. I feel bad about making such generalizations, but feel that they are fair from my experience. Do not expect to welcomed with a hug and find companionship wherever you turn in Denmark, but a somewhat independant person will love the place.

FINAL COMMENTS

The easiest way to get to Copenhagen is to take a plane to Malmo in Sweden, with the cost even lower then for a train or ferry. Try also to arrange a living place for at least first two weeks before you get here (some student hostels may be good fer thet) then just start looking for an accomodation.

I had a wonderful time in Denmarl. I can recomment a very nice travel route: take a ferry from Copenhagen to Oslo, spend a couple of days in Oslo (they have a couple of very good hostels) and then take a train to Stockholm, and - a train back to Copenhagen (there are special offers for students for ferry tickets).

My overall experience in Copenhagen was (as previous comments indicate) not a very positive one. However, it is a very attractive city and has a lot of things going for it. I believe that I just wasn't a good match for it. That said, I have since returned to visit friends and had some loely times there.
